FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
ON CERTAIN COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS (CNG) VEHICLES, IN THE EVENT OF A SEVERE INTERIOR FIRE IN THE AREA OF THE REAR SEAT, THE CNG TANK MAY BE HEATED UNEVENLY, PREVENTING THE PRESSURE RELIEF DEVICE FROM VENTING THE CONTENTS OF THE TANK AS DESIGNED.
Fix: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A HEAT INSULATOR MATERIAL TO THE REAR SEAT BACK. AN INTERIM OWNER LETTER WAS MAILED TO OWNERS BEGINNING NOVEMBER 26, 2007. WHEN PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, OWNERS WILL BE RENOTIFIED ASKING THEM TO BRING IN THEIR VEHICLE FOR REPAIR. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009.

I HAVE A 2001 HONDA CIVIC WITH 67,000 KM AND WHEN I DEPRESSED THE RELEASE BUTTON BY THE DRIVER'S SEAT TO OPEN THE GAS TANK COVER, IT WOULDN'T OPEN. I WAS UNABLE TO FILL THE CAR UP WITH GAS UNTIL I TOOK IT IN TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM AND I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE CABLE REPLACED. I AM TAKING IT IN TOMORROW AND WAS TOLD THE COST WILL BE APPROX $120.00.*AK
